Pointed out by mauke in #haskell chat: this was incorrectly splitting
PATH on windows (splitting on the : in C:\...), which meant that
people using multiple drive letters on Windows might see hledger
failing to recognise installed add-on commands.
CSV rules files can now be read directly, eg you have the option of
writing `hledger -f foo.csv.rules CMD`. By default this will read data
from foo.csv in the same directory. But you can also specify a
different data file with a new `source FILE` rule. This has some
convenience features:
- If the data file does not exist, it is treated as empty, not an
error.
- If FILE is a relative path, it is relative to the rules file's
directory. If it is just a file name with no path, it is relative
to ~/Downloads/.
- If FILE is a glob pattern, the most recently modified matched file
is used.
This helps remove some of the busywork of managing CSV downloads.
Most of your financial institutions's default CSV filenames are
different and can be recognised by a glob pattern. So you can put a
rule like `source Checking1*.csv` in foo-checking.csv.rules,
periodically download CSV from Foo's website accepting your browser's
defaults, and then run `hledger import checking.csv.rules` to import
any new transactions. The next time, if you have done no cleanup, your
browser will probably save it as something like Checking1-2.csv, and
hledger will still see that because of the * wild card. You can choose
whether to delete CSVs after import, or keep them for a while as
temporary backups, or archive them somewhere.
I found at least one user for whom this would be a breaking change
(they generate forecast txns, and have auto posting rules, but don't
want the latter applied to the former). I guess it's better to keep
things as they were for now: if you need auto postings on your
forecast txns you must use two flags, --forecast --auto.
Previously, similarity completely outweighed recency, so a
slightly-more-similar transaction would always be selected no matter
how old it was. Now similarity and recency are more balanced,
and it should produce the desired transaction more often.
There is also new debug output (at debug level 1) for
troubleshooting.
Boolean queries are now prefixed with an 'expr:' prefix, making them
completely separable from old queries and making the addition of them a
little more migration proof.
The tests are updated accordingly, changes made to the tests previously
are removed and extra cautious documentation is also removed.
This commit changes some of the functions in the Query module and
changes the overall way to parse queries. Instead of using the words''
split function, this commit starts to fully parse the query, as it's
seen as a type of expression.
AND, OR, NOT, and space operators can be used. The space operator
simulates the behaviour from before, leaving a minimal amount of tests
that need to be adjusted to comply to the new behaviour.
I was confused when using 'areg ACCT QUERY'. Now, the title will show
" (matching query)" as a hint when a QUERY is specified,
except when it is a date restriction (which is common and not confusing)
or a depth restriction (which is ignored).
When there are only few, short strs and width is large, then the div
operation in itemspercol would return zero, triggering and error in
chunksOf.
This fix makes numcols have always at least as many entries as strs,
filling one line.
The HTML formatter outputs a HTML snippet containing a table with a
header row and one data row per report item. The header row names
match those for the CSV output formatter. Multiple commodities in
a report item are listed together in the same cell separated by
commas, again matching the CSV formatter.
A future extension could be to explore using multiple rows for
multiple commodities, with HTML row spanning.
Fixes#1996.

Hledger.Cli.Script is a convenient prelude for use in scripts,
reducing import boilerplate. It currently re-exports:
Control.Monad
Data.Either
Data.List
Data.Maybe
Data.Ord
Data.Time
Text.Printf hiding (formatString)
Data.Text (Text, pack, unpack)
Safe hiding (at)
System.Directory
System.Environment
System.Exit
System.FilePath
System.Process
Hledger
Hledger.Cli
Hledger.Cli.Main (argsToCliOpts)
but not (much of) Data.Text or Data.Text.IO, as those
need to be imported qualified.
It disorders same-day transactions, doesn't support print's options,
and isn't useful enough to be always shown in the builtin commands
list. I don't know of any users, or a use for it, and it could easily
be recreated as an addon script, so I'm inclined to not bother
supporting it as a hidden command.
Ie as well as full descriptions, it now also offers payee names which
have been declared with a payee directive, or recorded in transactions
with the | syntax.
This replaces the old journal*AccountQuery with the new Type query. This
enables uniform treatment of account type, and fixes a subtle bug
(#1921).
Note that cbcsubreportquery no longer takes Journal as an argument.
hledger check recentassertions (or flycheck-hledger if you enable this
check) will complain if any balance-asserted account does not have a
balance assertion within 7 days before its latest posting. This aims
to prevent the situation where you are regularly updating your
journal, but forgetting to check your balances against the real world,
eventually requiring you to dig back through months of data to find
the error.
transaction prices.
When given --infer-costs, hledger will now separately infer transaction
prices for different prices. Given a pair of adjacent conversion
postings, hledger will check if there is a single posting with a
transaction price which matches both the amounts. If so, it associates
those conversion postings to that priced post.
If it can't find any transaction price postings which match, it will
find the first non-transaction price post which matches one of the two
amounts, and will add a transaction price to that, and associate them.
When given --infer-equity, hledger will change transaction prices to balancing equity postings. This introduces the inverse operation, --infer-costs, which will match balancing equity postings and transform them into a transaction price, allowing --cost to work properly with them. This is only a partial inverse as it needs to use some heuristics to match the postings which will not work in complicated cases.
Specifically, when hledger finds exactly two conversion postings in a transaction (by default, subaccounts of equity:conversion or equity:trad(e|ing)), it will find the first posting in the transaction whose amount is negative one of the conversion posting amounts, and inserts the corresponding transaction price.
May also fix#1154, #1033, #708, #536, #73: testing is needed.
This aims to solve all problems where misconfigured locales lead to
parsers failing on utf8-encoded data. This should hopefully avoid
encoding issues, but since it fundamentally alters how encoding is dealt
with it may lead to unexpected outcomes. Widespread testing on a number
of different platforms would be useful.
And remove the last vestiges of older more complex behaviour.
ordereddates now always checks all transactions in each file,
unaffected by a query. (But still affected by --date2).
By default, all account declarations and all transactions are searched;
but when there's a query involving transaction fields,
account declarations unrelated to the matched transactions are not searched.
added:
queryIsCode
queryIsTransactionRelated
This increases composability and avoids some ugly case handling. We
re-export runExceptT in Hledger.Read.
The final return types of the following functions has been changed from
IO (Either String a) to ExceptT String IO a. If this causes a problem,
you can get the old behaviour by calling runExceptT on the output:
readJournal, readJournalFiles, readJournalFile
Or, you can use the easy functions readJournal', readJournalFiles', and
readJournalFile', which assume default options and return in the IO
monad.
When rendering register or aregister reports, calculate the amount /
balance width based on the first 100 items, and start rendering in that
way. If you encounter a longer one, update and continue rendering. This
will result in adjustment of column width for long reports, but allows
us to save a lot more performant/efficient.
This can be disabled with the new --align-all flag.
We also only render each amount once, rather than twice as before, by
storing the rendered amount in a tuple.
total prices. (#1813)
Also reduce duplication for inferring market prices (previously it was
done separately in both Hledger.Data.Journal and
Hledger.Cli.Commands.Prices), and remove *TotalPriceToUnitPrice
functions, since unit prices cannot represent all total prices.
Add a helper function numDigitsInt to get the number of digits in an
integer, which has a surprising number of ways to get it wrong.
This requires checking parent accounts for any new accounts introduced by auto postings which do not exist in the original journal.
Also refactor journalFinalise to only call journalPostingsAddAccountTags once, and use fewer intermediate variables.
type:TYPES, where TYPES is any of the (case insensitive) letters
ALERXCV, matches accounts by their declared or inferred type.
(See https://hledger.org/hledger.html#account-types.)
This should work with most commands, eg:
hledger bal type:al
hledger reg type:x
API changes:
Journal has a new jaccounttypes map.
The journalAccountType lookup function makes it easy to check an account's type.
The journalTags and journalInheritedTags functions look up an account's tags.
Functions like journalFilterPostings and journalFilterTransactions,
and new matching functions matchesAccountExtra, matchesPostingExtra
and matchesTransactionExtra, use these to allow more powerful matching
that is aware of account types and tags.
Accounts, postings, and transactions can now all be filtered by the
tags in an account's declaration. In particular it's now possible to
more reliably select accounts by type, using their type: tag rather
than their name:
account myasset ; type:Asset
account myliability ; type:Liability
$ hledger accounts tag:type=^a
myasset
Accounts inherit tags from their parents.
API changes:
A finalised Journal has a new jdeclaredaccounttags field
for easy lookup of account tags.
Query.matchesTaggedAccount is a tag-aware version of matchesAccount.
